Portion Sizes can be tricky to get right and yet they are key to maintaining a healthy, balanced diet.
Here is a little video I did with BBC Food a few months ago, shot in the most gorgeous kitchen (it’s not mine!).
Using your hand as a general guide can be a great way of judging portions and it also means it works well for children and adults.
I’d love to know your thoughts. How do you judge your portions? Other great way to do this are to create your own measuring cup. Using a mug weigh out the standard serving and then place it in a mug, mark a line for that food (rice, pasta, cereals). Or for carbohydrates there is a lovely carb spoon that I actually use myself at home.
